Tips for your skin

  • Dry heat and AC pull water from skin. Apply serums on damp skin and keep a hydrating mist handy.
  • On high-AQI days, double cleanse every night. A morning antioxidant (vitamin C or niacinamide) helps neutralise pollution damage.
  • We kept Lactic Acid and Peptides on separate nights on purpose: use with caution when layered.
  • Patch test every new product on your jawline for 2–3 nights before using it on your whole face.
  • Budget tip: Indian D2C brands sell single-active serums for ₹300–₹700 that match premium formulas. Pay for sunscreen first.
